Nintendo’s Mario and Pokemon video games top the list of best-sellers

Top Video Games of All Time: Pokemon Video Games

Another Nintendo exclusive, Pokemon video games are also a massive hit when it comes to best-selling video franchises. The series started in ’96 in Japan, and has been an international hit ever since.

The Pokemon games allow players to take on the life of a Pokemon trainer, catching and battling Pokemon to become the Champion.

I look around my house and between our three kids, we have at least a dozen Pokemon video games (including Pokemon X for 3DS, which I bought last night), meaning NTDOY has roughly $480 of my money — did I mention Pokemon video games almost never go on sale?

With nearly 250 million copies sold, Pokemon video games place an easy second on the list of top video games of all time.
